A pair of classic colour work mittens with a little twist, this type of colour work is typical for vintage Scandinavian mittens. Since the pattern is repetitive it is easy to remember and you do not have to check the chart very often. The cuff comes in 2 variants for the 5 largest sizes (3 years+) an i-cord tied around the wrist which is both decorative and functional or a regular ribbed cuff. The 2 smallest sizes feature only the ribbed cuff.

Sizes: 0-1 year, 1-3 years, 3-6 years, small adult, medium adult, large adult, extra large adult

Yarn: Sport weight yarn, I used Rauma garn, Finullgarn (175 m/50 g, 100% wool) for the gray; Öland Ullcentrum, 2tr for the green and yellow, BC Garn, Semilla and Sandnes, Tove are other similar alternatives I use for mittens.
